Series: Flavia de Luce #6 This one was a bit weird and seems to be taking the series in a new direction. I'm not entirely sure if I like the direction, but I still enjoy listening to the books.
So, it seems that the body of Flavia de Luce's mother, Harriet, has been found in a glacier in the Himalayas and is to be returned to their estate, Buckshaw, for a proper interment. When the train rolls into the village, someone gets crushed under the wheels of the train just moments after the victi...
How much did I love this story!! My favorite of the series so far. The writing is superb, the storyline engaging, and Flavia and household are always fun to spend time with. When I listen on Audible (on my work commute) Jayne Entwistle brings it all to life perfectly - she is an absolute delight ...
This was my favorite Flavia book to date. Without losing any of the charm and imagination, this installment seriously leveled up the intrigue.

I had been waiting a long time for that explanation and at last, it came. It's hard to review this without spoiling it, so I'll just say I loved t...
“Mother,” I whispered. “It’s me—Flavia.”And thus starts the sixth instalment of the acclaimed Flavia De Luce mysteries by Alan Bradley. As Flavia and her family awaits the return of her mother on the platform of Bishop’s Lacey, a train carrying her mother arrives. Along with the train a man comes an...
New Review! THE DEAD IN THEIR VAULTED ARCHES is a middle book in a mystery series, true, But it still gets top marks for being Childhood's End for the main character, Flavia de Luce. Good stuff within! http://tinyurl.com/kmr9qjh I had to add a photo to make this work. *sigh*
Harriet de Luce is finally returning to Buckshaw. The de Luce family solemnly awaits Harriet's return via train at Buckshaw Halt station. Harriet's return is with much pomp and circumstance, as she is accompanied with a military guard, numerous political dignitaries -- including Sir Winston Churchil...
